Famous quotes containing the word guardian:

    That a guardian should require another guardian to take care of him is ridiculous indeed.

    It’s not the bullet with my name on it that worries me. It’s the one that says “To whom it may concern.”
    —Anonymous Belfast Resident. quoted in Guardian (London, Oct. 16, 1991)

    When Britain first, at Heaven’s command,
    Arose from out the azure main,
    This was the charter of her land,
    And guardian angels sung the strain:
    Rule, Britannia! Britannia rules the waves!
    Britons never shall be slaves.
    James Thomson (1700–1748)
